I. T. LOVETT, LITTLE SILVER, N. L 

 GRAND HARDY PHLOXES. 



Phlox Decussata. 



One of the most popular anrl important of Ha'dy Perennials. None are more satis- 

 factory, either in the border or for cutting. The skill of the hybridizer has greatly perfect- 

 ed the Phloxes of today, which are models of excellence and beauty. Plants are of vigor- 

 ous, sto ky habit, blooming incessantly from early summer until autumn, with magnificent 

 heads of bloom often eight to ten inches long, by six to eight inches across; and of a great 

 range of color — from vivid scarlet to the most delicate tints and purest white. They 

 thrive in all soils, but do best in one that is deep and rich. Those who omit these superb 

 flowers from their gardens miss a great pleasure. The varieties named are the finest of 

 their repective colors and the most reliable and p ofuse bloomers ; selected from a very 

 large collection of the choicest varieties in cultivation.
